Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen Organic chemical compounds contain a vast number of isomers‚ molecules with the same molecular formula but different atomic arrangement‚ of which there are three types: structural‚ geometric and optical. The most closely-linked of isomers are optical isomers‚ which differ only by the three-dimensional placement of the molecule’s attachments‚ which renders its mirror images to be non-superimposable.
